Go away, Nancy

Okay, this is political...and catty....I'll claim it: I can't stand Nancy Pelosi. I'm not talking her political stance though that's enough to make me kick a brick, but her....well, I don't know what it is I can't stand. Is it that she gives women in politics a bad name? Not necessarily---there are dozens of others that do that. Is it her false smile? Her false teeth? Her false sincerity? Possibly all of that...but, I don't think that's it. Abraham Lincoln once said, "I met a man I don't like. I must get to know him". Well, apply that to ole Nance...I don't like her. But I don't really want to get to know her. I think we "know" all there is to know. I think what bothers me is that, intrinsically, women are nurturers. We care about others. We jump to the aid and defense of children even if we've never birthed any. We have compassion and heart. Nancy simply doesn't exude any qualities that I think our magnificent gender has been blessed with by our Creator. Yep, that's it in a nutshell. She's a bully and I don't like bullies. But more than that, I don't like bullies with false teeth, false sincerity or false smiles. Go away, Nancy, just go away. (whew, I feel better)

About Me

A touch about me:....Life is a hoot and worth living to the fullest. That's not to say it doesn't have its share of bumps...it certainly does, but as a counselor, I know the value of talk therapy and, as a woman, I know the value of friends. I'm a wife, a mother, a grandmother, a child of God. I have balance. I'm still young enough to have fun but old enough to not need the social pretenses that comes with the days of young wifehood. I'm free! My prayer is that my family stays healthy, I improve the world each day, and that I arrive wherever I'm going wearing shoes that match! Join me...share with me...let's have fun! Love, Sidney
